Full screen with Vista?

[MicMin]

We have a new computer with Vista and I have not been able to get VMK in full screen. I tried F11 and the way that I always used before (using run and iexplore -k https://secure.disney.go.com/vmk/en_US/register/index?name=LoginPage) but that doesn't work. Anyone have any other ideas?
Thank you for any help.

Get VMK Pal!

Thanks Lovela. I may give that a try. I have been hesitant to use VMK pal because I was not sure of the security of it.

Can you change your screen resolution? That's what I do with my computer on Windows. Make the icons a bit smaller, but the box is at least full size that way.
Good luck with it. My sister's new laptop has the same program. I think she has had a time getting used to it too.

Thanks LuvN~Travel.
I have tried changing the screen resolution but I haven't had any success with getting it the way that I wanted.
We just got this computer yesterday so Vista will definately take some getting use to. I miss my XP. LOL
Updated to add that I was able to get full screen with much help through PMs and your help here.
Thank you everyone.

Change to Full Screen: NOTE: this may have to be done every time you reboot. As Vista is know to default back....

I dont know what went wrong with your computer, but I've had my laptop with Windows Vista for some good months now and everything has been working properly and perfectly. I havent run into any problems on or off VMK with anything that I am doing. Sorry you had problems.
